A Story Ola Slave Who Had the
Squirrels Vice of Overheard

A Story Ola Slave Who Had the
Squirrels Vice of Overheard
ing.
From the Atlanta Constitution
Browns Mound, in Twiggs county,
was part of the princely domain ola
middle Georgia planter. This planter
owned slave who was miser. Such
instances are not uncommon among
the Southern negroes. This negro was
rather PRIVILEGED above the ordinary
slaves, and his master allowed him
to cultivate a little patch on the
mound and keep theproceeds for him
self. Many handful of cotton and
many a peck Of peanuts did it take to
accumulate q hoard gold amounting
to about $500. But itwasdone. No
one knew the hiding place Of this fund.
The other negroes had a natural dis
like for the miser who ''wus
so mighty curious in e ways" At
dead of night he would unearth
his treasures and seek safer spot for
deposit. He gloated over it, and list
ened with delighted ears to the jingle
OF the precious coin. Then came Will
sons cavalry. leaving death and des-
olation in their train.
They learned of the poor negro's
boarded treasure, and some of the
troopers caught him and tried to force
him to reveal his secret. In some way
he escaped and fled in the night. After
searching for some time after the
whirlwind OF war had passed they
found him wandering aimlessly about
the little patch on the mound. He
was rendered insane by the fright.
When asked where was his money, the
reply would come short and sharp:
Hid on the noun. !" He had fbrgot-
ten it's hiding place, and others tried
IN vain TO assist him in finding the
spot where it was buried. It is now a
neglected place, where quail shooting
would be fine were it not for the rat
tlesnakes that infest the hooks and
crannies of the mound.

He looked at me deprecatingly from

seemed to resist with any success the
paralyzing effects O. his debauch and
replied In a somewhat steadier tone
'Brand! [ should say so, say so.

RUMBLE OF THE RAILS.
THE MILWAUkEEW WILL FIGHT
On the Issue Raised by the Milling
in Transit Rate.

The Milwaukee & st. Paul, it has now
been ascertained, has determined to
fight unless the Burlington q Northern
comes to time on rates. General Mana
ger Roswell Miller, OF the st. Paul, has
lust declared himself to the effect that
the Burlington q Northern had no good
grounds for finding fault about the mill
ing in transit orders sold by the st.
Paul road. Those orders, he asserts,
were issued on business from local
points on its own lines west of st. Paul
and Minneapolis, and the other roads
st. Paul and Minneapolis had no
right to demand n portion of that
traffic or compel the st. Paul road to
make rates on the same to suit its
competitors. He claimed that the
st. Paul could do with its local traffic
as it liked, and if it chooses
can take it for nothing. He declared
that his road had made up its mind not
to give up milling i'll transit, no matter
what the result might be. 1t was pre-
pared to fight for its rights, and the
Chicago, Burlington IL Quincy, which is
backing the Burlington IL Northern,
will now have to take some medicine in

west The st. Paul will, therefore, meet
the rates made by the Burlington Il
Northern between Chicago and st. Paul
and Minneapolis by making correspond
ingly low rates between Chicago and
Council Bluffs and Omaha. 1t seems as
though the fight is inevitable, mas
much as the Burlington some time
ago declared that it would
reduce the rates unless the st. Paul
withdrew its transit. The st. Paul has
declared that under no circumstances
will it withdraw the transit, no matter
what the consequences may be. This
closes the issue. To avoid the diff
Guilty and to prevent rate war that
that would extend not only throughout
the Northwest. but also throughout the

VIII BuiId am Elevator.

SUPERIOR, Wis, May 26.-Informa-
ton obtained from reliable authority
tends to imply that the Northern Pacific
Railway company will at once commence
the construction of the long talked of
grain elevator on the Nemadji river
in the east side of the city. This re-
port is made still more credible by the
fact that in order to compete with the
Manitoba and other roads which own
elevators at West Superior and Duluth
the building of an elevator or two here
is necessitated. 1t is said that the struc-
ture will be of mammoth proportions
and equal in capacity to the Great
Northern elevator at West Superior.
The Northern Pacific also intends to
make several dock improvements here
this summer to facilitate the handling
of the increased receipts of coal and
iron, as this is the distributing point of
fuel and construction material for both
the Northern Pacific and Manitoba

Proposed New Road.

Special to the Globe.
OMAHA, Neb., May 25.-Large delega-
tons from Northwestern Nebraska and
Southern Dakota, with a committee
from the Omaha board of trade. met
MesSrS. Young and Meckling here last
night to hear a proposition for the build
ing OF a railway from Omaha to Yank-
ton. Mr.. Young, who is the protector
of the Omaha Southern road, now build
ing. represents Il syndicate of Chicago
and New York capitalists. He offered
to build the road if 100000 were raised
by the people along the line. The prop
counties have already agreed to raise
their share of the amount. The con-
tract will be made with Mr.. Young at
once, and ne guarantees that the road
will be ready for use in eighteen
months.
